Oge

OGE

                                 Crushed dreams exploded friendships eroded,
                                  stubbornness, selfishness and ego interceded,
                                  expectations of true friendships forever eroded. 

                                  Mystique, curiosity gives the urge to peek,
                                  but critiques week after week , send a message
                                                 there's a mean streak.
                                  Always like a kid wanting to be applauded,or a
                                  confused adult needing to be lauded, friendly at
                                  times, ugly at others .

                                                     Yoyo idiosyncrasies    
                                   flexing like Jekyll and Hyde, a crazy pretender,
                                   never had a nurturer, stuck in mixed moods
                                    one that love and friendships eludes

Jill Spagnola April 29, 2015 at 12:05 PM really expressive! May I ask how you came up with the title? Joan Williams April 29, 2015 at 3:23 PM Backwards its EGO ... funny I wrote this one day when a rather overwhelming friend (a movie maker but cannot write) throws a tantrum because I was having a small gathering of writers artists, close friends over for my birthday (about 12 ppl) he wanted to bring an entourage, I insisted no just 2 ppl he could bring , well it was the last fit he threw concerning me....a great stage play actor too, very spoiled . after writing it My son suggested calling it OGE for ego....I don't consider myself a poet I have many thoughts and want to get feedback here about poetry I write because I write on issues mainly...I cant write a love poem or a long poem. LOL
